Hello,

I am building a tab [results]; on this tab, I have a column [column A] which lists a unique value (description). In [column B]; I need to create a formula. This formula needs to look into the [raw data] tab, and count the number of distinct IDs which share the same (description) and also have one more criteria with color = "red".

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: center"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"][results]

So basically, I want to look up [results].A2 in [raw data].C:C, make sure we are only looking at the "red" values in [raw data].B:B; and then count the number of distinct IDs associated with those two criteria.
 

Excel Facts

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
There were errors in my description column on my raw data tab! nice call!

Ok. See if this works

=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IFERROR(IF(combinedCCB2018!G$2:G$10=A2,IF(combinedCCB2018!C$2:C$10="Testing", MATCH(combinedCCB2018!B$2:B$10,combinedCCB2018!B$2:B$10,0))),FALSE),ROW(combinedCCB2018!B$2:B$10)-ROW(combinedCCB2018!B$2)+1),1))
Ctrl+Shift+Enter
